A                      E 
Look at the kid from school 
A                                  E 
He?s teaching mamas and papas how to be a little cool 
A                         E 
He?s changing fashion, the way he dress 
A                                 E 
The tracksuits are old, and the hoody?s way too moody 
C#m 
For a kid with the will to funk 
                                B 
He dances in secret; he?s a part-time punk 
 
She?s getting off the plane 
She wants to write a thesis on the population underprivileged 
The kids fighting up the lane 
Shop lifting, just drifting 
Like The Switchblade And The Cross  
But if there?s trouble she?s got the moves 
She?s taking an elementary class in Kung fu 
 
I left my washing in the launderette 
You can put some money on it, you can place a little bet 
That when I see my washing  
The black will be grey and the white will be grey 
But the blues are still blue 
 
I?m crying out for my mum 
If the malady don?t go away we?re in a little trouble 
With the boss of the company 
I?m a singer, a swinger I?m a layabout but laying on  
The dock in the lazy sun 
Will never quite relegate me to a bum 
 
I left my lady in the launderette 
You can put some money on it, you can place a little bet 
That when I see my lady 
The black will be white and the white will be black 
But The Blues Are Still Blue 
 
Baby, I love your face 
I?ve been creeping round this town because? 
Well, creeping?s just my way 
But with a little wink I?ll be there 
I?ll be excited for a week, but then excitement starts to fade 
I know your young, but you?re out of touch 
You?re French, your vocabulary?s not quite formed 
 
I left my homework in the launderette 
I got a letter from my mamma which my stoopid dog has ate 
I hid behind the fence 
Here comes the deputy head with the bark of a bulldog 
He?s not making much sense 
 
I left my lady in the launderette 
You can put some money on it, you can place a little bet 
That when I see my lady 
The black will be white and the white will be black 
But the blues are still blue?
